Trumpite Americans, when will you finally acknowledge that you’re traitorous assholes?

The radical left = not a Nazi.
RINO = not a Nazi.

Manchin needs to wake up to the realization that people this crazy want to kill him too.
Selling his soul has gained him jack squat with this crowd.

Kinzinger has had death threats against him, his wife and their 5-month old kid

The Pro-Life party at work.

Oh and apart from banning the Log Cabin Republicans from their convention and putting it in their platform that being gay is "abnormal", the Texas GOP also put in that they want full repeal of the Voting Rights Act.

The amount of sheer lunacy from the Right is getting worse.

Why doesn’t shit like this fall under the category of making a threat?

Given that's Mike Flynn's old division, they might not give a shit.

But the Pentagon might. IIRC, it's illegal to use military emblems in certain things. I don't know the exact rules on it, but the shit's so serious that movie companies, even when they're filming a movie with the full cooperation of the military (like Zero Dark Thirty) will make changes to stuff so that it resembles the actual uniforms and insignia of the military units, but are distinct enough that if you saw the film version and the real version beside one another, you could spot the differences.

Tee hee, it's just jokes!
Where have we heard that shit before?

Georgia GOPpers seeking to quash subpoenas against them in the Fulton County Grand Jury investigations:

Basically trying the usual Trumper argument that they can't be arrested whilst in office.

Unless I missed something, a suboena is not the same thing as an arrest warrant. You can be taken into custody and forced to appear and held in criminal contempt if you refuse to testify. Raouk can correct me if I’m wrong, but being in office doesn’t provide protection from arrest.

Stephanie Grisham tweeted a text exchange between herself and Melania Trump on Jan 6th.

I mean, he's a well known swastika-kisser, and that tweet's pretty much word for word Storm's take.
Shocker that Nazis think alike.

What's the alternative to "the wisdom of crowds"?
The people the radical right think are "our betters" aren't the least bit fucking impressive.
A bunch of wrestling managers, game show hosts, and Charles Dickens villains.

But if they eliminate the idiots that's most of the GOP base.

They're all "my property!! My property! My home! My property! No one has the right to intrude! My property!" until they decide they don't like you, then they think they have every right to threaten your home and family.
Right-wingers don't have a single "value" they don't wipe their ass on five seconds later.

Who was it who said that right-wing politics is predicated on the belief that there should be an out-group whom the law binds but does not protect, and an in-group whom the law protects but does not bind?

A lot of the cognitive dissonance seems to boil down to that.

But it's okay to threaten Supreme Court justices and yell and scream at confirmation hearings. It's also okay to burn down businesses. Nobody on the left has a problem with it because nobody said anything against it. That's the WF standard, right? If you don't say anything against it, it automatically means you support these things.

Frank Wilhoit. From a blog comment no less:


There is no such thing as liberalism — or progressivism, etc.

There is only conservatism. No other political philosophy actually exists; by the political analogue of Gresham’s Law, conservatism has driven every other idea out of circulation.

There might be, and should be, anti-conservatism; but it does not yet exist. What would it be? In order to answer that question, it is necessary and sufficient to characterize conservatism. Fortunately, this can be done very concisely.

Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit:

There must be in-groups whom the law protectes but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect.

There is nothing more or else to it, and there never has been, in any place or time.

For millenia, conservatism had no name, because no other model of polity had ever been proposed. “The king can do no wrong.” In practice, this immunity was always extended to the king’s friends, however fungible a group they might have been. Today, we still have the king’s friends even where there is no king (dictator, etc.). Another way to look at this is that the king is a faction, rather than an individual.

As the core proposition of conservatism is indefensible if stated baldly, it has always been surrounded by an elaborate backwash of pseudophilosophy, amounting over time to millions of pages. All such is axiomatically dishonest and undeserving of serious scrutiny. Today, the accelerating de-education of humanity has reached a point where the market for pseudophilosophy is vanishing; it is, as The Kids Say These Days, tl;dr . All that is left is the core proposition itself — backed up, no longer by misdirection and sophistry, but by violence.

So this tells us what anti-conservatism must be: the proposition that the law cannot protect anyone unless it binds everyone, and cannot bind anyone unless it protects everyone.

Then the appearance arises that the task is to map “liberalism”, or “progressivism”, or “socialism”, or whateverthefuckkindofstupidnoise-ism, onto the core proposition of anti-conservatism.

No, it a’n’t. The task is to throw all those things on the exact same burn pile as the collected works of all the apologists for conservatism, and start fresh. The core proposition of anti-conservatism requires no supplementation and no exegesis. It is as sufficient as it is necessary. What you see is what you get:

The law cannot protect anyone unless it binds everyone; and it cannot bind anyone unless it protects everyone.

Were you crying when you wrote that?

It sounds like you were crying

I’ll be crying tears of joy when all of the liberals flee to Canada, I’m still waiting for that to happen though.

Well that's probably why you can't wait to vote for Trump again

I didn't vote for Trump.

Lol no one believes that

I don't give a shit. I know the truth and that's all that matters, everyone else can fuck off.

Sounds an awful lot like something a trump voter would say

Moving on, @Federal Farmer can you please tell us who are your favourite QAnon candidates in the coming midterms and why

Troll someone else, I'm done with your bullshit.
